COAT.

Application filed February 6, 1924. Serial No. 690,895.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, RUBIN LIPsKY, a citi zen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, county of Philadelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Coats, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.

My invention relates to coats and more particularly to mens coats. The object of my invention is to so secure the lining to the body as to avoid the provision of any special seam or line of stitche along any cxposedpart of the body where a seam or line of stitches would not be required in case the lining were omitted, thereby reducing the labor required to make the garment and avoiding the exposure of any special lining stitching thread on the outer face of the body. The invention also provides for a pocket construction of especial utility.

In the drawings:

Fig. 1 is a side view, of a part of a coat made in accordance with my invention, looking toward the outside of the coat.

Fig. 2 is a side view of the same part of the coat, looking toward the inside.

Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.

Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4 4 of Fi 2.

Fig. 5 is a section on the line 55 of Fig. 2.

Fig. 6 is a section on the line 6-6 of Fig. 2.

The drawings show the body portion of the garment by means of a double line connected by crosshatching, while the lining is represented. as a single line; whereby these two parts of the garment are readily distinguishable. In other respects, also, the drawing is somewhat diagrammatic, for purposes of clearness.

The body a of the coat has a typical cut or shape, the same having a T-cut represented by the lines 6 and 0. The cut 0 forms the pocket opening. The cut I) is for the purpose of shaping the coat, the opposing edges being secured together in the usual manner, forming an inside seam, as indicated at d, Fig. 5.

Along the front ed 6 of the coat the material of the body is olded in, in the usual way, as indicated, to form the fold a, shown best in Figs. 4 and 5.

The lining f is sewed to the upper edge of the body a at the shoulder portion and arm-hole, along the inner or concealed edge It will be observed that by forming and I securing the lining as; described, no lines of stitches are required that extend onto the exposed face of the body except the stitches along the line b, which line of stitches would be indispensable if the lining were altogether omitted.

The lower end portion of the lining is turned in and the fold it thus formed is, as above described, secured at its upper edge to the pocket edge formed by the cut (1, as best shown in Fig. 3. Secured to the flap 2' ot the pocket and to the fold it of the lining is a strip of material 7' which, together with the fold It, forms the pocket pouch. The bottom edge of the lining is made of" quadruple thickness by folding in the material and forming the seam is, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3.

Having now fully described my invention, what I claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent is 1. A coat comprising a body with an inturned fold along the front edge, the body having a downwardly extending .cut for shaping purposes, and a lining secured along one side edge to said inturned fold of the body, the edges of such out and a part of the other side edge of the lining being secured together along the same line to form a seam, whereby the lining is secured to the body without providing an extra seam and without extending the stitches onto an unsecured and exposed part of the body.

2. A coat comprising a body with an in turned fold along the front edge, the body having a downwardly extending cut whose edges are secured together, and a lining secured along one side edge to said inturned fold of the body and along the upper part of its other side edge to the body along the line of said out, the bottom edge of the lining and the lower part of the last named side edge being free of the body.

3. A coat comprising a body with an in turned fold along its front edgeuand having a downwardly extending out and a pocketopening, a lining, the edges formed by the downwardly extending out being secured together and the lining being secured to the body along the line of said downwardly extending cut and along said inturned fold,

the lower part of the lining being upturned 1o ands'ecu-red to the edge of the pocket opening, the lining hanging free of the: body along: its bottom; a-ndialongithe lower part of the side edge thereof below the top of the pocket opening, and a piece of material forming, with the'lining, the pocket pouch.

In testimony of which invention, I have hereunto set my hand, at Philadelphia, Pan, on this 1st day of February, 1924.

RUBIN LIPSKY.
